NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal: Chapter 776 Media fire, end-of-month battle

Near the end of the year, the media are not idle. On December 28, the league officially announced that the best players of the past week in the East and West were Marcin Gortat and Wang Zelin. On the 29th, several authorities The media also updated the latest MVP rankings.

In the expectations of the fans, Wang Zelin will definitely rank first in the major media rankings.

He deserves such praise and praise. He is fully worthy of the three letters "MVP" in terms of team performance and personal data.

Then, when the rankings were actually announced, all the fans were taken aback. Wang Zelin, who had a dominant performance, actually failed to dominate the rankings.

In the latest MVP list released by Sports Illustrated and TNT, Wang Zelin ranked first!

But in the rankings of the bleachers and ESPN, Wang Zelin, who is considered to be the leader of all MVP lists, can only rank second and third respectively!

The number one bleacher MVP list is Stephen Curry.

In this regard, the reason they gave is - the only two 31-win team leaders in active service!

In addition, Curry's stunning feeling in the new season is stronger than Wang Zelin, who has been MVP for two years.

To put it bluntly, the outside world has a feeling of aesthetic fatigue for the Blazers and Wang Zelin. In comparison, the performance of the Warriors and Curry in the new season makes them feel even more bright.

Of course, if the reasons given by the bleachers are a little reluctant, but still reasonable, then ESPN's ranking of Wang Zelin in third place is indeed a bit outrageous.

In ESPN's updated MVP rankings, the first position is neither Wang Zelin nor Curry. Although Curry ranks higher than Wang Zelin, he is only one position higher.

Because the No. 1 spot on the MVP list was taken by Kawhi Leonard.

Everyone was stunned, how could he, Leonard He De, sit on the heads of Wang Zelin and Curry?

When everyone sees the reasons given by ESPN, they find it even more ridiculous, because ESPN's reason for ranking Leonard in the first place turned out to be rapid progress!

In a few simple words, De Leonard has beaten the two super giants who have played phenomenal performances this season. For the first time in his career, he was officially listed as the first place in the MVP rankings of a single issue by ESPN.

Yes, compared to last season, Leonard's personal performance this season is indeed surprising. From the first day of the season, he has been constantly refreshing his various career records.

Up to now, he has averaged 22.5 points, 7 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 1 block per game, which is a big improvement compared to last season.

As for the team, at the beginning of the season, after some lobbying by the Spurs' luxurious lobby group led by Sima Wei, the Spurs finally ushered in the first All-star player in team history, Kevin Love, who has made a name for himself in other teams. Actively join.

Relying on the striker combination of Leonard and Love, and the young GDP trio, the Spurs started a wave of winning streaks.

As of December 29, the Spurs' record has reached 28 wins and 4 losses, second only to the Trail Blazers and Warriors in the West, and also ranks third among all teams in the league!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Spurs management team made a bet with the 15th overall pick in the first round of the 11th draft that year. Results day.

The entire holy city finally ushered in the leader of the next era.

Coupled with Kevin Love's biggest reinforcement in team history, under the leadership of Leonard and Love, the Spurs can still maintain enough championship competitiveness in the Western Conference and even the entire league even after GDP ages. .

But this still can't make Leonard beat Wang Zelin and Curry to become the first place in the MVP ranking of the authoritative list.

…

San Antonio.

Inside the Spurs head coach's office.

Murder with a knife!

This is killing people with a knife!

There are many smart people in the league, not to mention the old thief Sima Wei who sits on the Spurs.

Almost as soon as the list came out, he understood ESPN's intentions. In order to stop the Blazers' No. 36 MVP from three consecutive villages, those nasty media people came up with such a bad move to push Leonard to the top. The dazzling location attracts firepower, which in turn sparks intense controversy.

As a result, the trend of mainstream public opinion suddenly became to criticize Leonard, so that people can subconsciously ignore Wang Zelin and Curry who played well.

Sure enough, the comparison of the media is the knife that kills without blood.

As for the face or something, just kidding, who cares about this stuff if you want to be in the media?

Unexpectedly, as soon as the latest MV chart came out, it caused a huge controversy.

Originally, Leonard has made great progress this season, and led the team to a dazzling record with Love.

But because San Antonio is only a small city after all, the influence of local media is limited, so few people other than local media and fans will pay attention to the changes of the Spurs.

Who would have thought that ESPN suddenly made such a move and ranked Leonard first in the MVP position. On the surface, they were approving Leonard's performance this season.

However, this was actually putting Leonard on the fire.

For a time, basketball fans around the world were criticizing Leonard because he was simply not worthy of the No. 1 spot on the MVP rankings.

Of course, there are also many Spurs fans and melon eaters who support Leonard:

With the core of the team getting older, Leonard can grow rapidly from under the wings of GDP and stand up to carry the team this season. Since his record and statistics are not bad now, why can't he rank first? ?

Don't say No. 1, even if the MVP trophy is directly awarded to Leonard, they all agree with it!

As for Wang Zelin and Curry.

One has won two consecutive MVPs, and everyone is tired of seeing it;

The other player is soft, and at most is an enhanced offensive version of Steve Nash. What's the use of looking good in the regular season? In the playoffs, this kind of jumper team will definitely not go very far.

Under the voices of various disputes, the development of things was as expected by ESPN, and the popularity of Wang Zelin and Curry really dropped a little.

ESPN executives opened champagne all night to celebrate: It's not easy, we finally won that kid once!

…

the other side.

Regarding the various discussions on the Internet, Wang Zelin is too lazy to join in the fun. After all, he is not stupid, so how could he not see that this was deliberately done by ESPN.

Those guys wanted to disgust themselves, but he wasn't fooled. He wasn't Durant, and his mind was not that sensitive and vulnerable.

Compared with opening a trumpet online and fighting with netizens, Wang Zelin prefers to play well and talk with the ball!

What's more, the Blazers have only the last game left this year, and the opponent is the Cleveland Cavaliers, the strongest in the East. Facing such a strong enemy, he is eager to use a hearty victory to come. Celebrate the arrival of the new year.

By the way, also bet on the mouths of some so-called "objective fans" on the Internet.

They say they are tired of watching my game, so I will use more explosive data to give you a better understanding.

…

It's almost here, December 30th.

On this day, Wang Zelin and his teammates traveled thousands of miles to Cleveland, ready to use a big victory to draw a perfect end to the December schedule.

Before the game, under the mobilization of Wang Zelin, the Blazers seemed to be battling blood, and could not wait to smash the Cavaliers' basket at night.

Especially Wang Zelin, he is ready to win a super data tonight.

For example, breaking the previous season high with the Cavaliers - 60 points in a single game!

However, when the game was about to start at 7 p.m., when the players from both sides entered the field to warm up, Wang Zelin saw a scene that disappointed him.

The Cavaliers' main center, DeMarcus Cousins, was sitting at the end of the bench in a casual suit, and it seemed like he couldn't play.

After the warm-up, when he returned to the visiting team's locker room, Wang Zelin learned from the coach that Cousins ​​had a sprained calf before the game and was expected to take a break before returning to the game.

It also means that the opponent he is thinking of will not be able to play tonight.

What are you doing?

After listening to this, Wang Zelin was speechless on the spot. It felt like that. I was ready, but you told me that your relatives were here?

But then again, looking back at Cousins' career attendance rate, it is not difficult to find that this guy's health has not been adequately guaranteed.

The first few years of the rookie were better, and the further back, this guy developed directly into a glass man.

And this is also related to Cousins' style of play. He is obviously a big center. I honestly look for those, and I have to like to play tricks.

Speaking of which, Cousins ​​of this time and space escaped from the sea of ​​bitterness of the king early and went to the arms of the 30-year-old old man. His style of play was not as magical as in his previous life, but it was more in line with his personal style.

So the question is, how did he get hurt?

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Zelin still didn't come up with a reason, just go and ask Cousins, the game is about to start again.

And if I ask now, are you sure it's not an act of rubbing salt on the wound?

Simply, he expressed his doubts to the coach.

Sure enough, every team that has done something has its own set of intelligence network, which is convenient for them to keep abreast of the trends of other strong teams.

The typical representatives are the Celtics and the Lakers, the two major players in the NBA.

Especially the Celtics, during the period of "Cardinal" Auerbach, eyeliner can be said to be all over the league. Sometimes a word from Auerbach's father can affect the management of other teams, even more than the league president David. Stern's words are reliable.

For the superior, the existence of Auerbach undoubtedly affected Stern's control of the entire league.

That's why Stern refused to sign the 1997 No. 1 pick to the Celtics in the first place.

You know, at the beginning of the Celtics management, under the signal of Auerbach, the biggest powerhouse in history actually put down its face for the first time, and did not hesitate to compete for the 97th No. 1 draft by crazily playing it, just to win the senior Tim. ·Duncan, reshape the glory of the Green Army!

If it wasn't for Stern to stop it in time, with Auerbach's original power in the entire league, after getting Duncan as he wished, the pattern of the Green Army's **** of the league can almost be said to be a certainty.

This is the last thing Stern wants to see, so even if the Green Army has an 82-loss record in the regular season and has a 99.99% probability of getting the No. 1 pick, Stern will let that 0.01% probability appear.

Because the Green Army is brilliant enough, he doesn't want to see an Auerbach-like figure in the league.

That's where Auerbach's exit and the Celtics' 10-year trough, until the August 2007 deal...

Ahem, the topic is too far away, let's get down to business.

In Coach Terry's Kochi, Wang Zelin knew that Cousins ​​was injured because of excessive weight gain in a short period of time, which caused his body to be unable to withstand the long and tedious schedule.

Well, that guy Cousins ​​wants to win so much that I fight like this!

After knowing the ins and outs, Wang Zelin couldn't help but sigh.

Why is Cousins ​​working so hard to gain weight? Not to deal with his king.

So, to a certain extent, the reason why Cousins ​​was injured has something to do with him...

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

That guy's injury obviously depends on his own body not being able to carry it, so what does it have to do with my king?

…

…

At 7:30, the game between the Blazers and the Cavaliers officially started.

As of now, the Cavaliers have a record of 25 wins and 8 losses, leading the Eastern Conference and ranking fourth in the league, the absolute top team.

It's a pity that the Cavaliers not only lost a general before the game, but they were talking about the main center Cousins, the inside core!

Without Cousins, not only did the starlight at the Quick Loan Arena at home dimmed a little tonight, but the key point was that there was one less person who could barely talk to Wang Zelin on the inside.

The three giants of knights are indispensable, because only the complete knights have the ability to fight with the western giants to make me live.

But if during the regular season, one giant had to be missing due to unavoidable reasons, presumably Cavaliers fans would prefer Irving to sit on the court at the moment, rather than Cousins.

Especially when playing the Blazers with the league's strongest interior combination, without Irving outside, James and JR, Dellavedova, Humbert, Jones and others maintain offensive firepower.

But the few of them tonight were indeed Cousins. This time, they couldn't guard against Wang Zelin and Aldridge, and now there are no people who can come out and attack them.

At the end of the first half, the Trail Blazers had a 15-point lead and beat the Cavaliers 58:43.

If it wasn't for the fact that JR, the guard with the sword in front of the palace, suddenly felt the ball and made three three-pointers from the outside line ~www.mtlnovel.com~, it is estimated that the score would have been pulled to 20 points by the Blazers.

However, the Cavaliers barely resisted for two quarters in the residual state, and finally fell in the third quarter.

Entering the second half, the Blazers were in full swing. Wang Zelin scored 18 points in a single quarter, plus 10 rebounds and 3 blocks, completely killing the eyes.

After three quarters, the score was pulled to 36 points. The Cavaliers were silent at home and fell into a dead silence.

Not surprisingly, the game completely entered garbage time.

In the final quarter, the rookies of both sides pecked at each other, and the score difference did not decrease but instead increased. In the end, the Trail Blazers defeated the Cavaliers by 44 points with 135:91 on the road, and won the final battle of the December schedule!

At this point, the Blazers' 2015 schedule is all over. They have a record of 32 wins and 1 loss, ranking first in the league in military!
